WC breaks: we have used washrooms at these 2 locations in the past, but I cannot guarantee Toronto Parks has not locked them for 'emergency repairs':

Rosetta McClain Gardens at the 9.5 km point
Birchmount Community Centre at the 10.5 km point

ABOUT THIS HIKE
We will make our way to the beach.
Our 3 km on the beach will include walking on sand, jagged rocks,
possibly: mudslides, fallen trees, and 1 km on huge seawall boulders (which may have waves crashing on them).
If the lake level is high we may have to walk in the water for a bit.
Be prepared for the possibility that your feet might get wet, sandy and muddy!

We'll have lunch either on the boulders or in Rosetta McClain Gardens, depending on the timing and pace of our hike.
walking on sand and boulders, and over logs will be much slower than on sidewalks
